Abstract

The article considers criterion-parametrical aspects of formedness of students-philologists’ cross-cultural competence. There four criteria of formedness of students-philologists’ cross-cultural competence are established as: motivational and axiological, cognitive, operational, behavioural and activity. The main parameters of motivational and axiological criterion are: formedness of cognitive, professional and social motives, according to which one becomes aware of the significance of the material studied and possible ways of its application; positive / neutral / negative attitude to cultural discrepancies; estimation of other culture (following / ignoring stereotypes or prejudices). Cognitive criterion involves: knowledge of phonetic, lexical, grammar material, culture-specific units of native and foreign languages; formedness of monological and dialogical skills on definite topics; sociocultural material acquisition. The key parameters of operational criterion are: ability to use culture-specific units and units of non-verbal communication, which comply with communicative situation; skillful use of lexical units and grammatical structures pursuant to context; ability to organize dialogue / monologue in alignment with the norms of everyday, learning, professional activities. In terms of behavioral and activity criterion such parameters are considered as: restraint in judgements; ability to control one’s behavior; ability to analyze divergent positions before making a final decision.

 In conformance with the criteria and parameters determined there are four levels of cross-cultural competence specified: elementary, intermediate, upper-intermediate, advanced.

 Key words: cross-cultural competence; criteria, parameters, levels of cross-cultural competence formation; students-philologists.
